<h1>Changing the MicroStrategy Web default start page</h1>
<p>MicroStrategy Web uses the 
<a href="Using_the_Web_home_page.htm">home 
 page</a> as its start page, by default. You can change the default start 
 page that appears when you log in. For example, you can determine whether 
 the last report you executed is the first thing you see when you log into 
 Web. </p>
<p>You must have the necessary privileges to change the default start page 
 preference. For more information, contact your administrator. </p>
<h2>To change the default start page </h2>
<ol type="1" class="whs1">

<li class=p><p>Select <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Preferences</B></span> 
 at the top of the page. The Preferences page opens. On the left, select 
 <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>General</B></span>. The General preferences 
 page opens.</p></li>

 the MicroStrategy Web default home page layout</a>. </p></li>
	</ul>
</ul>
<p class="whs3">The <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Summary</B></span>

 of the My Reports area, the description shows a list of the folders and 
 objects in that area.</p>
